Auction Information
We bundle and weight lots for the current auction the Wednesday night before the auction. We post the list here as soon as we can, thereafter.
Register now for this year's auction. By doing so, you will be in our database for next year's mailing and it will save you and us some time the day of the action. We have so many people registering the day of the auction that we quite often don't have them in the system yet by the time they are bidding. You can help - Register now. You will not be charged the registration fee until you pick up your bidder number the day of the auction. When you get to the auction, as soon as the awnings go up on the smaller trailer, you may go to the window marked "Get your bidder number here" to get your bidder number (card).
Come join the auction! See all the great antlers for sale. This is a Jackson tradition that you should not miss. Bring the whole family to Elkfest and see this signature event, started in 1968, and visited by people from all over the world.
This event provides a wonderful opportunity for scouts to serve their community. The majority (80%) of the proceeds from the Boy Scout Elk Antler Auction are used to support the winter feeding program at the National Elk Refuge.
The BSA Elk Antler Auction is always held the Saturday before Memorial Day weekend. (Memorial Day weekend being Old West Days here in Jackson Hole.) The date of the auction this year is Saturday, May 16th, 2009. Center street adjacent to the Jackson Town Square will be blocked off for this event. Antler inspection begins at 7:00 a.m., registration at 9:00 a.m., and the auction at 10:00 a.m.
